Selkirk Pack

The Selkirk is the ultimate backcountry skiing pack.  Designed and meticulously hand crafted by Neil Warren, a professional ACMG Ski Guide.  This ski/splitboard pack is the culmination of 30+ years of backcountry skiing experience, 25 years sewing experience, 15 years of repairing outdoor gear (seeing 1000's of gear failures) and feedback from countless customers & fellow Guides.  I feel so strongly that the Selkirk is the ultimate backcountry pack, that it's now the only pack design I offer.  No more custom orders, no more multiple pack designs, just like there's only one glorious Selkirk Mountain range in the world, there's only one pack from Alpine Threadworks.  Note: this design was previously named the Monashee. 

Fabric: Main fabric is Challenge Sailbloth's recycled EPX400.  The premium, hydrophobic, Ultra400 TX Dyneema is also offered as a $100 upgrade.  The lid and other lighter weight items on the pack is the recycled nylon/dyneema ripstop Ultra grid

EPX Pack weighs ~1130grams.  The Dyneema is slightly lighter.  The main benefit of the Dyneema is that it's hydrophobic.  I'll be honest, If I was making a pack for a durability contest, I would not use Dyneema. (Id use 1970's 1000d Cordura).  Hydrophobic means that the fabric will not absorb moisture, and thus not gain weight, through the day. 

Tall length fits back length measurements of 55-59cm

Regular length fits 52-54cm. *note* Regular is slightly less volume than the tall 

If your back-length is outside of the standard size offerings, custom fitting is available.
